Brielle froze, feeling a presence behind her that sent a shiver down her spine. How did he get up here?
"King!"
Did he actually come across the balcony?
But the gap between the balconies was massive.
"Did you come across the balcony?"
King's face twisted into a pitiful expression.
"You were ignoring me, and the door was locked. I had no choice but to climb over."
Brielle felt a mix of irritation and a tingling fear at the back of her neck but didn't dare open the door, unsure if she had caught something.
There were no clear symptoms yet, but the memory of what she saw in that room made her stomach churn with nausea.
Was it a symptom, or just sheer disgust?
"Brielle, please open the door. I miss you so much."
He wanted to hold her, to sleep next to her.
Brielle's heart softened, but now wasn't the time for that.
If she was sick, there was no curing it.
She couldn't bear the thought of him seeing her in such a state. If symptoms appeared, she'd rather swallow a whole bottle of sleeping pills.
Tears welled up in Brielle's eyes, but she refrained from opening the balcony door.
King pleaded for a while before he was about to kick the door in frustration.
"If you kick that door, I'll never speak to you again!"
King's foot halted mid-air.
Brielle turned away, refusing to face him.
"Just go back to your room. Don't use the balcony anymore. Have them bring a ladder from upstairs for you."
The silence from the balcony was suffocating, and Brielle, feeling the weight in her heart, steeled herself.
However, five minutes later, she felt arms wrapping around her from behind, and before she knew it, she was pinned down on the couch, her lips claimed in a fervent kiss.
